Hi, I’m John, founder of NootroHack.

I want to share why this company exists, and why it’s so personal to my journey in Nootropics.

For years, I did what a lot of driven men do when they feel like the weight of the world is on their shoulders. I numbed myself just to keep going. I drank too much. I worked late, ate later, and kept pushing myself like that made me tough.   But the truth is, it was breaking me.

I started waking up exhausted. Not just tired, but mentally foggy, emotionally distant, and physically drained. I’d reach for caffeine to jumpstart the day, then more caffeine just to keep from crashing. When that wasn’t enough, I turned to energy drinks.

They worked for a while. Until they didn’t.


Before long, I wasn’t just burnt out. I was anxious. And not just anxious, I mean paralyzed. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t focus. Couldn’t connect with the people I loved. I was alive, but I wasn’t really living.

That was my wake-up call.

With the support of my wife and some unexpected inspiration—including a custom AI I built to challenge me like David Goggins, I quit drinking. I gave up caffeine. I decided to take my life back.

And that’s when everything changed.

A buddy at work handed me a cup of mushroom coffee. No caffeine. I was skeptical, but I tried it.

Within days, I felt something I hadn’t felt in years. Real energy. Clean. Focused. Lasting.


That sparked an obsession. I went deep into the science behind functional mushrooms. I learned how compounds like Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, and Reishi don’t just boost energy. They help rebuild the systems that create energy from within. They protect your brain. They support your nervous system. They strengthen your resilience.

That’s when it hit me.

Everything we’ve been taught about energy like coffee, sugar, stimulants, it’s all just a shortcut. A crutch and our bodies are capable of so much more.

That’s why I created NootroHack. Not just a supplement. A mission. A full-spectrum nootropic to help restore your energy, sharpen your mind, and rebuild you from the inside out.

If you’re a high performer running on fumes, I get it. If you’ve been powering through life on caffeine and willpower, I’ve been there.

But it doesn’t have to stay that way.

This is your call to stop surviving and start thriving.

Hi, I’m Tina, co-founder of NootroHack.

This company was born out of a need I also felt deep in my own life a need for clean, focused energy that didn’t leave me feeling drained, wired, or burned out. For years, I was doing what so many of us do showing up for everyone else while running on caffeine, adrenaline, and very little sleep. Between raising kids, leading teams, building community, and holding space for others, I kept pushing forward until I realized I was constantly running on empty. And I wasn’t alone. My husband felt it too.

We knew something had to change. That’s when we started exploring a different kind of energy one that supports your brain and body instead of depleting it. What started as a personal journey led us to something much bigger: the idea for NootroHack. But my journey didn’t start here.

Before NootroHack, I built a career rooted in service and community. I earned a degree in Human Services because I’ve always believed in people and the power of purpose. I’ve worked with nonprofits like Habitat for Humanity, led housing and equity initiatives, and served on boards focused on human trafficking and maternal health. Philanthropy isn’t a side project it’s woven into everything I do.

Later, I transitioned into tech and led Customer Success at a fast-growing SaaS company focused on student safety. I built programs, supported hundreds of customers, and led teams that made people feel seen, supported, and empowered.


Along the way, I founded the San Diego chapter of Latinas in Tech because representation matters, and our voices belong in the rooms where change is being made.

With NootroHack, I’m bringing all of that experience community, empathy, leadership into something new. We’re not just building a supplement. We’re building a brand rooted in transparency, integrity, and the belief that people deserve better.

This isn’t about hacks in the shortcut sense. It’s about creating smarter, more sustainable ways to support your mind, your energy, and your life.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to grind your way through the day just to keep up, I’ve been there. I see you. And I truly believe we don’t have to live like that anymore.
